CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
Background and Rationale
The College of Computer Studies (CCS) at Central Philippine University (CPU) started in 1995 when the course Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (BSCS) was offered as a degree program under the College of Commerce. The program aims to fill the growing need for computer literate professionals in the field of business.
On June 2001, in line with the recommendation of the Commission on Higher
Education (CHED) to pool all related courses into one college, the CPU administration decided to transfer the department under the College of Engineering (COE). The department was merged with the Department of Software Engineering.
On June 2002, the College of Commerce offered a new program, Bachelor of
Information Science and Management (BISM). The offering of this course was made to integrate Information Technology to all business and management courses.
In 2003, the University President, Dr. Juanito M. Acanto recommended to the Board of Trustees for the creation of the College of Computer Studies which will be composed of three departments:

Computer Science, Information Sciences and Management and

Information Technology. This continuing growth in the life of the College is brought about by the increasing need of competent information technology professionals.
In a nutshell, the performance of an educational institution’s performance is partly measured by the employability of its graduates. At present, the college needs to determine the factors that affect graduates’ employability and analyze the benefits of it in

the preparation of soon to be graduates and enable them to meet the challenges of
professional

    At a graduate level responsibility and preparedness are very important. With the main goal being on gaining a degree at graduation, academic writing, knowing personal strengths and weaknesses, finding out and knowing ways to improve on weaknesses, time, and stress are among some of the crucial areas at a graduate level to not only be responsible for but to also be prepared for. Seeing that the occasion of graduation comes with many responsibilities before-hand to reach that ending result, it makes sense that, “the more serious the occasion the more preparation is required and the more responsibility you have for the occasion, the more preparation is required” (Byrd, 2010).…

    The Georgia Tech (GT) survey of alumni who received graduate-level degrees from 2005–2008 was undertaken to identify alumni satisfaction with preparation for employment and experiences at Georgia Tech. A thorough survey process yielded a 25.9 percent response rate. Because of the high quality assurance steps taken and the results received, this report is grounded in the assumption that the results obtained are both accurate and broadly representative of the population of Georgia Tech graduate-degree recipients for those years surveyed. Complete survey results, including data specific to academic programs, are available through the Office of Assessment’s Assessment Data Online Retrieval System (ADORS): < http://www.adors.gatech.edu/ >. The following are some of the major findings: The majority of alumni (80.0 percent) would recommend their graduate-degree program to friends or relatives. The majority of alumni (89.7 percent) were generally satisfied with their overall preparation to obtain employment after graduation from Georgia Tech. Alumni were most likely to indicate that they were prepared to identify, formulate, and solve problems in their discipline (90.6 percent) and to use the techniques, tools, and skills prevalent in their discipline (87.7 percent). Alumni were least likely to indicate that they were prepared to write grant proposals (PhD: 41.5 percent; MS: 22.0 percent). Over 87 percent of respondents reported being employed full-time and 91.9 percent reported being at least somewhat satisfied with their career choice since graduation. While 19.6 percent of respondents indicated that it took up to a year to find their first full-time job after graduation, 45.7 percent reported accepting the position upon graduation. Among doctoral respondents, 33.9 percent reported…

    On the other hand, this tracer studies constitute one form of empirical study, which can be considered an appropriate means of evaluating the results of the education and training provided at a given institution. It brings together certain basic types of information concerning the level of employment, unemployment and underemployment amongst graduates, the contemporary undergraduate experience, the first and current work position of graduates and the correspondence between educational qualifications and required work skills. Results of such studies can often demonstrate the success of education and training in relation to the graduates, labor market and employers. The information acquired by means of tracer surveys can also indicate possible deficits in a given educational program and serve as a basis for future planning activities, at both the institutional and national levels, such that academic programs might be brought more closely in line with the needs of the economy.…
